No problem at all. He was circumcised to witness to the Jews. This did not mean he was going back under the law. IN FACT, he was circumcised in order to bring the Jews out from under the law and into the grace of Christ.
It was a stumbling block issue.
Can you please reconcile what Paul wrote in Gal. 5:2-4 with what Luke
records that Paul did in Acts 16:1-3? You will have to stop being a
legalist with Gal. 5:4 in order to do it.
